I just started looking at IIS and ASP this morning as well.
There is NO "use ASP with IIS tick box" that I can locate.
The documentation as I understand it states that ASP comes with IIS.
I've spent about 4 hours so far on setting up and trying to sort out
a simple page to test with.
-----
<%@ LANGUAGE=VBScript %>
<html>
<body>
<% Response.Write "This is a test ASP page." %>
</body>
</html>
----
I've associated the .asp file extension with Internet explorer and simply
open the file.
IE just shows a blank page.
I've installed the script debugger and inserted a STOP.
The debugger fires and the code is visible.
But as soon as I type in ? Date <cr> the debugger freezes.
Does my .asp file have to be in a certain directory to get the ASP server to
work?
Any other constructive suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I'm a complete newbie to IIs and ASP (come from the Apache/Cold Fusion
world ). I've created a very simple ASP test page:
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<% Response.Write "This is a test ASP page." %>
But when I access the page, it just displays the page as text, instead
of processing the ASP. I've looked at a half-dozen Microsoft KB
articles, but still no luck. I'm not getting an error, it's just not
processing.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
